FEAT: Smooth sideway scroll
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. No, just a minor UX thing. Sideway scroll feel quite very uncomfortable on large tables. It sticks strictly on column start. Eyes can't track what you're actually scrolling.
Describe the solution you'd like Would be nice to have an option to switch scroll type.
Describe alternatives you've considered Not applicable.
Now this is out of scope, it will require quite big changes in datagrid component.
But there is another data view, perspective (Open perspective from table ctx menu), which uses smooth scrolling (but it is used in different cases, mostly there are a few columns visible in perspectives)
I second this request, it's very uncomfortable to scroll in a large table, even vertical scrolling can be annoying as you jump through 5 records at a time
Just came across this - it's a bit of a shame. Along with Chrome's back/forward gestures when using a touchpad (like on a Mac), the snaping makes using dbgate quite error-prone and unpredictable. It would be great if this can be reconsidered! Thanks!
I totally understand, it is an issue on touchpads for sure. But like Jan said it is not a simple change to implement, rest assured it is something we are aware of. Feel free to open up a PR in the event that you find time to do an implementation.
